6. OPERATING / INSTALLATION MANUAL
6.1 Open the door
To open the door, proceed as follows.Open the cover for the lock before inserting the key into the keyhole to open it. This will
bring the handle forward. Turn the handle half a turn after which the door is unlocked.
6.2 Mounting on the foundation
To fit the foundation, a hole must be dug of roughly L 900 mm x D 450 mm x H 450 mm. The bottom of the hole must be
stable and levelled.
Place the foundation base level in the hole. The upper surface of the base must be flush with the upper surface of the grade
/ paving. The foundation must then be reinforced by adding at least two 20 kg bags of fast-setting concrete in the corners of
the foundation.
After the fast-setting concrete has cured, the charging station can be mounted on its foundation using the nuts and bolts
provided (nuts to the top).
The hole in the foundation and the charging station must be lined up. See drawing of the front of the foundation base. Take
account of the connection face of the charging station in relation to walls, hedges, etc.
Also keep in mind that there is sufficient space for the operation of the charging station. For this we advise to keep at least 1
meter of free space around the charging station.
